Web Platform Baseline brings clarity to information about browser support for web platform features.

Baseline gives you clear information about which web platform features are ready to use in your projects today. When reading an article, or choosing a library for your project, if the features used are all part of Baseline, you can trust the level of browser compatibility.

Baseline was originated by the Chrome team and is now defined by the WebDX Community Group.

Baseline has three stages:

  • Limited availablity: The feature is not available in all the core browsers.
  • Newly available: The feature becomes supported by all of the core browsers, and is therefore interoperable.
  • Widely available: 30 months has passed since the newly interoperable date. The feature can be used by most sites without worrying about support.
  • Chrome (desktop and Android)
  • Edge
  • Firefox (desktop and Android)
  • Safari (macOS and iOS)
